Fair Treatment

A violation of injunction against repeat violence (a restraining order) can be a red flag to future employers.

That is why you need Attorney Fernández on your side. He can fight for you to ensure that you get the fairest treatment possible in the court system.

In addition to future employment obstacles, you could have to serve jail time. In Florida, the law states that domestic violence is to be treated as a criminal matter, rather than a private matter. If you are convicted of a misdemeanor you could get up to 1 year in jail and, depending on the charge, if you are convicted of a felony, you could get sentenced up to 15 years in prison and could be forced into a treatment program. In addition, a domestic violence charge can affect child custody issues.
